Booky Wooky our very own talking book!

Our Reading show - written to encourage kids to rediscover and read storybooks - went down a storm in libraries all over the country during world book week earlier this month.

If you run a library or are simply looking to promote literacy amongst kids, give us a call. I think you’ll find that our reading show - “The town with no stories” - is the perfect way to get kids reading.

Nobody ‘Normal’ here!

I really need to get into the blog habit - not there yet I’m afraid.  Anyway, here’s a bit of an update on events at the Kids Party Club.

We are completely delighted to welcome two new franchisees to the family.  Sean Galligan in Cavan and Monaghan and Treasa Guerin in Kerry.

They are here in HQ right now as I write this.  Two lovely ‘ordinary’ (in the very best sense of the word) people moving out of their comfort zone and taking their first tentative steps in the world of childrens entertainment and education.  Very brave and very cool if you ask me. 

My hat is most definately off to all of our Franchisees.  These people were dentists, warehouse workers, farmers, publishers, shop assistants and all manner of things before owning their own Kids Party Club business. Now they are Puppetteers, Magicians and DJ’s working for themselves and taking some control of their destiny in these uncertain times.
